we know more about errors and faa facilities because the faa spotlight is bringing them out of the darkness. without an equally broad view, i think it is difficult to draw absolute comparisons about safety. i would note the department of transportation's department general observes a voluntary reporting program would ensure that errors are thoroughly reported. i understand they are encouraging their contractors to implement safety reporting programs and i look forward to hearing more about the efforts. they have also found contract towers cost less to operate and facilities because in part they are stuffed with your controllers. however the national air traffic controllers association that actually represents controllers has raised safety issues and concerns with lean staffing levels. for example, controllers may have to stay on duty for longer and may have to multitask of a greater risk of destruction and have to work along with no backup. past accidents targets there must be enough controllers on duty to do the job safely. i am not suggesting contract hours are not as safe as facilities.
